Recruiting studies
- NCT07140328RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new inhaler for COPD symptoms
This trial tests two forms of a new medication (HSK39004) in people with COPD. The goal is to see if they help improve breathing and are safe. Eligible participants must be between 40 and 80, have moderate to severe COPD, and be able to stop other COPD treatments during the study.

Stem cell therapy for mild to moderate COPD
This study tests whether a new type of stem cell (SMS cells) can help people with mild or moderate COPD caused by smoking or pollution. You will receive the treatment by inhalation and be followed to see if your breathing improves.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 39–69 - NCT06283966RecruitingPhase 3
Triple inhaler for COPD with heart risk
This study tests a triple-combination inhaler (budesonide, glycopyrronium, and formoterol) to see if it can help protect the heart and lungs in people with COPD who also have heart problems or high risk for them.
Athens, AlabamaAges 40–80 - NCT07274631Recruiting
Study of inflammatory lung diseases
This study collects information from people with various inflammatory lung conditions, like asthma or COPD, to better understand them and improve treatment. Healthy volunteers are also needed for comparison.
ReimsAges 18 years+ - NCT05844462RecruitingPhase 3
Tadalafil for severe lung blood-pressure problems from COPD
This study tests whether tadalafil can improve outcomes for people with severe pulmonary hypertension caused by COPD (chronic lung disease). It compares how you do with tadalafil versus standard care, focusing on breathing symptoms and how well your heart and lungs cope.
Le Kremlin-Bicêtre, FranceAges 18–85 - NCT04427826RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Morphine to prevent early NIV failure in COPD flare-ups
This trial studies whether morphine can help people with a COPD flare-up avoid “non-invasive ventilation” (breathing support through a mask) failing early. The goal is to reduce how often people need escalation of care soon after starting NIV.
Grenoble, Isère, Auvergne-Rhône-AlpesAges 18 years+ - NCT06544928Enrolling by invitation
Home monitoring for COPD flare-ups after hospital discharge
This study tests a wearable device that listens to your breathing at home. It may help detect early signs of a COPD flare-up so you can get care sooner. You can join if you have moderate to severe COPD and recently left the hospital for a flare-up.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 40–80 - NCT06940414Recruiting
Study of high potassium in kidney disease patients in community
This study looks at how common high potassium levels are in people with chronic kidney disease who are not on dialysis. It may help find who is at risk and how to prevent it.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07315958Recruiting
Study on lung function in smokers visiting heart clinics
This study looks for signs of long-term lung problems in people who smoke or used to smoke, while they are visiting a heart doctor. It uses a simple breathing test and a short questionnaire to check if they might have a condition called airflow limitation.
AnkaraAges Any age - NCT03044847Enrolling by invitation
Long-term study of COPD in adults in China
This study follows people with COPD (chronic lung disease) over many years to better understand the condition. It may help doctors learn what factors predict worsening over time.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40–75 - NCT06652776Enrolling by invitation
Italian COPD patient registry study
This study is creating a registry to better understand Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in Italian patients. It will collect information from people with COPD to improve care and research.
Milan, MilanAges 40 years+ - NCT07073950RecruitingPhase 4
A study on a triple inhaler for COPD with hyperinflation
This study tests a triple-combination inhaler (budesonide, glycopyrronium, formoterol) against a placebo inhaler to see how it affects your heart and lungs if you have COPD and over-inflated lungs.
AhrensburgAges 40–80 - NCT04339270RecruitingPhase 4
Testing azithromycin in chronic lung disease with frequent flare-ups
This Phase 4 study tests whether a long course of azithromycin can reduce flare-ups in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who have had recent exacerbations. It also looks at mucus properties and how flare-ups happen.
BordeauxAges 40–85 - NCT07047092RecruitingPhase 3
CPAP vs. NIV for sleep apnea in COPD after breathing failure
This trial compares two breathing devices (CPAP and NIV) for people with both COPD and sleep apnea who recently needed breathing help in the hospital. The goal is to see which device works better at preventing future breathing emergencies.
ParisAges 18–84 - NCT06751537Recruiting
Testing a wearable device for COPD severity
This trial tests a wearable device (WearME) that tracks your breathing and activity to see how well it can measure COPD severity. It may help you and your doctor better understand your lung function at home.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 21–100 - NCT07431840Recruiting
Immune protein for respiratory infections in older adults
This trial tests whether an immune defense protein can help reduce upper respiratory infections (like colds) in people aged 60 and older. It may be a good fit if you get colds or flu-like symptoms several times each season.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT06253507Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene Therapy for Chronic Granulomatous Disease
This study tests a new gene therapy for people with a rare immune disorder called chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), which causes repeated infections. The treatment uses a modified virus to deliver a healthy gene to your blood stem cells, potentially helping your immune system fight off bacteria and fungi. The goal is to reduce the risk of severe infections and improve overall health.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–65 - NCT06971874Recruiting
Sleep apnea and kidney disease: A study on outcomes
This trial looks at how obstructive sleep apnea affects people with chronic kidney disease (stages 3-4). It aims to help understand the connection between these conditions and guide better care.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06602934Recruiting
Pneumonia, heart health, and your body's germs
This study looks at how pneumonia affects the long-term health of your heart and lungs by studying the germs that live in your body. It may help doctors understand why some people get worse and how to better protect your heart after a serious infection.
AngersAges 18–80 - NCT06615492Recruiting
Lung transplant study: comparing two ECMO methods
This study compares two ways of using a heart-lung machine (ECMO) during lung transplant surgery. The goal is to see if using ECMO only when needed works as well as using it for everyone. This could help reduce risks and improve recovery.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT07285122RecruitingPhase 1
Inhaled study drug for healthy smokers and people with COPD
This study tests an inhaled medication called RB042 in healthy adults, healthy smokers, and people with COPD. It aims to see how the drug works in the body and whether it is safe, which could help in developing a new treatment for COPD.
Nedlands, Western AustraliaAges 18–80 - NCT06959095RecruitingPhase 3
Depemokimab for adults with COPD and type 2 inflammation
This trial tests a new biologic medicine called depemokimab, given as an injection, to see if it reduces flare-ups (exacerbations) in people with COPD who have a specific type of inflammation (high eosinophils). It may help if you have frequent flare-ups despite using your regular inhalers.
Bakersfield, CaliforniaAges 40–80 - NCT06858748Recruiting
Mucus in airways: asthma, COPD, and chronic cough study
This study is looking at how mucus builds up in the airways of people with asthma, COPD, or chronic cough. Researchers will also compare findings to healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand these conditions and find new ways to help.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic respiratory disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 244 recruiting chronic respiratory disease studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a chronic respiratory disease trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a chronic respiratory disease trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
